son of his strong personality he has
stood as the example and led his
followers a safe and straight course.
There are, however, elements in the
organization which it has required
his best efforts to successfully COM

with one OF their own class. 1t will
be hoped by all friends of the true

that a worthy successor may be
chosen.

been waiting for the publication of
Gen. Logan's last work-Volunteer

DURING the term of court which
was adjourned last Saturday Judge
Thornell won the esteem and ad-
miration of all court officers, attor-
neys and applicants for justice. His
career as prosecuting attorney in
many respects was fortunate pre-
cursor of his tenn of wearing the
judicial ermine. When in the first
mentioned capacity, by being in
continual and stubborn contact with
the attorneys throughout the district,
the object of their keenness and best
efforts, he became enabled to draw
readily upon his resources and to
summon legal knowledge to his
ready service. This faculty serves
him well while on the bench and
enables him to execute the cour,
business with a despatch that would
be quite impossible to one of lesser
experience. Besides his recognized
ability, the judges evident manner
Of conscientiousness and responsible
ity in adjusting the causes brough,
before him irresistibly win the com
mendation of all. With a high
sense of his position, he views it
responsibilities gravely, devoting
his best efforts and deepest thought
to his duties, and weighs the issues
presented with greatest precision
Socially, the judge is decidedly cor
dial and most entertaining CONVEX
sationalist. Like Judge Deemer h
leaves only friends among the at
torneys and the people-all rejoicing
that their decision at the polls wa

Look Out for Them.

Agents for snide grocery houses
in Chicago have been canvassing in
Guthrie county, and in many in
stances have sold quite large bills Of
goods. They pretend to sell at 80
per cent lower than local retail deal
ers, but the first shipment of goods
arrived last week, and they are
found to be about IS per cent higher
than local prices, to say nothing of
the short weights that Will doubtless
be found by test, or the inferior quail
ity. 1t is past understanding that
people will listen to these sharks
palpabie frauds, frequently and wide
ly exposed. All things else being
equal, thcv must exact greater
profit than the resident merchant in
order to defray the expense of their
luxuriant and prohigate living and
costly modes of travelling. But the
circumstances are in no way equal.
Sharks aye not inCrcQucntly sent out
to dispose of stock that experienced
dealers will not buy, for the reason
that it has been damaged in some
manner or is Of inferior quality.
The home dealer, by his skill and
experience in buying, is a protection
to the consumer from such sharks as
are above mentioned. Competition
is SO sharp that only minimum mar
gins can be secured, SO that consum-
ers may know in reason that they
receive the best wo.tn Ct g dollar
when it is exchanged with the home
merchant.
The smooth-tongued gentlemen
may make Audubon county their
next field Of operations. Look Out
for them.

The X. Of L. editor Of the Biz
gard, who only labors when aroused
from his constitutional! inertia by
refractory pupil, and vino delivers
lectures upon industrial subjects from
the standpoint of one who never
labors, says "the inter state COM
mcrce law is condemned by all the
leading newspapers" The Chicago
journal is conspicuously the only
one Of the leading papers OF the
country that has ever denounced the
law in its entirety. Soon after the
law went into effect that stanch
sheet verged from its we'll trodden
path of adherence to the peoples
interests and called for the repeal of
the law. The call may be said to
have never received a second. News
papers have denounced certain sec
tons of the law, but it is generally
acknowledged that it is a step in the
right direction; that while it is not
perfection in Its present state addi-
tional Legislation will give the peo-
pie control over their servants-the
railroads. The indolent editor has
gained this false idea through the
fact that he labors under another
mistaken impression that the burden
OF his exchange table is the leading
papers, when in fact he has all the
cranky and fanatic sheets that are
published. The Industrial West,
published by that red. eyed agitator,
the notorious Sovereign, is perhaps
the nearest example of his chosen
literature, but is not more pernicious
than the whole. Feeding thus upon
the productions Of cranks, the velvet.
listed son of rest, who fills up the
Knight of Labor department Of the
Blizzard, that blows SO hard on
humanity, is guilty Of SANDER in the
quoted utterance.

THE disturbance in the State I'M

settled, and perhaps settled as nearly
right, if left to the discussion ofthose
Immediately Interested, but the de-
posed professors have assumed the
responsibility of making their per-
sonal grievances public. There has
been for years a disafcction that has
crippled the work Of the institution,
and if the regents have found the
long sought remedy they are to be
congratulated by the people of the
state. Knowing the gentlemen to

Of personal views, but rather that it

IT is gratifying to read in the
dispatches reporting celebrations that
so few cases of drunkenness and con-
sequent arrests are noted. 1t is an
unanswerable argument in favor of
Iowa's prohibitory law. These con-
ditions could not exist under high
license, for where liquor would be
sold at all it would be sold in guam.
titles 'to suit the purchaser" on the
natal day. Saloon keepers would
not be restricted; IN fact a license
compels them to sell almost indis-
criminately, in order that they can
pay that license and make the nee
essary profit. Prohibition is the
only remedy for the evil, and that il
is effectual and nearly positive is
well proven.
